Description
IF YOU'RE PREPARING FOR ENCOR, READY TO BECOME A LAB-FIRST ENGINEER, AND CAN SPARE 45 TO 60 MINUTES A DAY, THEN CCNP ENCOR MASTERY CAN POTENTIALLY HELP YOU BECOME A...
LAB-FIRST ENGINEER!
"My curriculum won't do much for engineers looking for shortcuts, exam dumps, or another video course to watch at 2x speed. But if you're willing to spend 45 to 60 minutes a day building labs, verifying your work, and sticking with the process, then maybe... just maybe... I can help you become the kind of Lab-First Engineer who's ready for both the ENCOR exam and the enterprise networks waiting on the other side."
Dear Network Engineer,
If you’re looking for a practical way to prepare for ENCOR without spending weeks building your own lab environment first, then this letter will show you how.
Here’s the deal:
I’ve built a complete Lab-First curriculum called:
CCNP ENCOR Mastery
However, it requires real work.
And it’s definitely NOT for everyone.
Here’s what I mean:

Helps Network Engineers Build Real Enterprise Networking Skills Through Lab-First Learning
“CCNP ENCOR Mastery” is a complete Lab-First enterprise networking curriculum built around forty-five structured labs, guided workbooks, pre-built EVE-NG topologies, and a ready-to-use practice environment. Every part of the curriculum was designed to help you spend less time preparing your lab and more time building the skills required for both the ENCOR exam and real enterprise networks.
Become A Lab-First EngineerOne Lab At A Time!
That’s my goal for you.
I want you to open a lab, complete it in one sitting, verify every part of your configuration, and finish with a clear understanding of not only how it works, but why it works. Then I want you to move to the next lab with more confidence than you had the day before. And by the time you complete the curriculum, I want you to be the kind of engineer who’s comfortable building, verifying, and troubleshooting enterprise networks instead of simply recognizing the commands on an exam.
More:
You also get a few valuable resources designed to help you spend less time preparing your lab and more time actually practicing.
The first of which is…
45 Enterprise Labs
Unlike most ENCOR training, these aren’t forty-five random labs collected from different sources or arranged in no particular order. They’re part of a structured Lab-First curriculum designed to take you from enterprise foundations all the way to complete production-style scenarios.
Every lab prepares you for the next one. Every phase builds on the previous one. Instead of wondering what to practice next, you simply keep moving forward until you’ve completed the entire curriculum.

Let’s take a quick break for a second.
One of the reasons I believe so strongly in Lab-First learning is because I’ve watched the same pattern repeat itself for years.
Engineers who spend most of their time reading eventually recognize technologies.
Engineers who spend most of their time building eventually understand them.
Those two things might sound similar.
They aren’t.
That’s why every lab inside CCNP ENCOR Mastery was designed to be built, verified, and repeated instead of simply watched.
Frankly, that’s the backbone of this entire curriculum.
Most engineers never practice this way.
But the ones who do rarely struggle to connect what they studied with what they eventually face in production.
A few months ago, one of our customers sent me an email after changing jobs and joining a large service provider.
For years, he had done what many engineers do. He bought courses, collected books, watched videos, and completed the occasional lab.
Then everything changed.
Instead of simply reading and watching, he started spending one to two hours every evening building labs, breaking them, verifying them, and repeating them until the technologies became second nature.
One sentence from his email perfectly captured what changed.
“I used to just sit and watch INE and CBT Nuggets… but my approach has become READ/WATCH + LAB… and LAB again.”
When I read that, I smiled.
Because that’s exactly what CCNP ENCOR Mastery was built to encourage.
Not more watching. Not more reading.
More building. More verifying. More repetition.
Because that’s where real confidence comes from.
And a whole lot more, including…
A Complete Save Config & Blank Topology Learning System
Every major lab inside CCNP ENCOR Mastery includes both a completed Save Config and a clean Blank Topology.
The Blank Topology lets you build the entire lab from scratch without any shortcuts.
The Save Config lets you compare your work, verify your progress, and quickly recover whenever you get stuck.
Build the lab once.
Compare your configuration.
Reset everything.
Then build it again.
That’s how real confidence is built.
Not by watching someone else configure a network.
But by repeating the process until you no longer have to think about the commands, because you understand exactly why you’re typing them.
But hang on… we’re still not done.
When you get CCNP ENCOR Mastery, you also receive:
Complete Enterprise Lab Environment . Every topology is already prepared, so you can spend your time practicing instead of building the lab itself.
Guided Enterprise Workbooks . Every lab includes step-by-step instructions, verification tasks, and troubleshooting exercises.
Ready-To-Use Enterprise Images . All required images are already prepared for the included enterprise scenarios.
Lifetime Updates . Future improvements, refinements, and additional content are included at no extra cost.
Anyway, here’s the deal:
CCNP ENCOR Mastery is U.S. $97.00 and includes lifetime access.
You’ll receive immediate access to all 45 enterprise labs, workbooks, the complete lab environment, Save Configs, blank topologies, and every future update we add to the curriculum.
Every purchase is backed by a 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee.
If you honestly don’t think it’s worth every penny, just send us an email within the first 30 days.
I’ll refund your money.
No hassle.
No hard feelings.
Fact is…
CCNP ENCOR Mastery really is not intended for everyone.
For example…
CCNP ENCOR Mastery is not for engineers who spend years collecting courses without ever opening a lab… Or engineers who believe watching someone else configure OSPF is the same as configuring it themselves… Or engineers looking for shortcuts, exam dumps, or magic tricks instead of real enterprise networking skills.
If that’s you…
Don’t waste your money.
I’m sure there’s another course out there that’s a better fit.
But…
It Ain't CCNP ENCOR Mastery.
And there’s no pressure to buy, either.
CCNP ENCOR Mastery will continue helping Lab-First Engineers build real enterprise networking skills whether you decide to join us or not.
In fact, if you’re not prepared to spend 45 to 60 minutes building labs… or if you’re looking for someone else to do the work for you… or if you’re only excited today but know you’ll stop practicing next week… then you shouldn’t buy this curriculum.
This was built for engineers who are willing to practice.
If you’re looking for motivation…
You’ll probably waste your money.
Anyway…
Enterprise networks aren’t getting any smaller.
And engineers who know how to build, verify, troubleshoot, and automate them will continue to have opportunities for years to come.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I need a special hypervisor to run the OVA?
The OVA runs on VMware Workstation Pro/Free, VMware ESXi, Proxmox, KVM, or Hyper-V. If you already have a home lab setup, the OVA likely works on it. No special hardware required.
How long does it take to complete all 45 labs?
Most engineers complete the full curriculum in 8-12 weeks, dedicating 8-10 hours per week. You can move faster or slower — there’s no time limit. Lifetime access means you set the pace.
What if I don't pass the first time?
The labs don’t expire. You can use them to study for a retake. Many of our customers use CCNP ENCOR Mastery as their retake resource — and most pass on the second attempt.
Is this just a video course?
No. Video courses teach concepts. This is a hands-on lab system that teaches skills. Every lab includes workbook instructions, CLI walkthroughs, and a “rebuild from blank” challenge. You’re typing commands, not just watching.
Are the labs video-based, or are they provided as workbooks?
CCNP ENCOR Mastery is not a video course. Every lab is delivered as a step-by-step workbook built around realistic enterprise networking scenarios.
Each workbook guides you task by task as you configure, verify, troubleshoot, and rebuild the network yourself. The goal is to help you develop real hands-on skills through our Lab-First approach, rather than simply watching someone else configure a network.
Do you offer group or enterprise licenses?
Yes. If you’re a training manager or team lead, we offer volume pricing. Contact us directly to discuss team licensing options.
What support do I get?
You get lifetime access to our private engineer community where you can ask questions, share configs, and learn from peers who are working through the same labs. For technical issues with the OVA or labs, we respond within 24 hours.
